Game On: A closer look at how the Huskers and Boilermakers match up

1. A week of normalcy. Adrian Martinez is practicing. Everybody knows he’ll start. The playbook is wide open. Nebraska hasn’t had that certainty in its offensive huddle in practice since the lead-up to the Colorado game. It can make a difference.

2. Start fast. Or at least don’t give it away. The Huskers have been outscored 37-7 and turned the ball over six times in three first quarters so far. The bet here is that if NU wins the coin toss for a fourth straight week, Frost will take the ball. Can Nebraska turn a first possession into an early lead?
